Ordinary World, no question. Mostly because of this version:


I also like Hungry Like the Wolf and Rio.

I should like the Warren Cuccurullo stuff more than I do, but I don't.

Their best song for me is Rio, it's all about that killer bass line.

Rio!

Ah, it's got to be 'Wild Boys', for the camp song and the camper video.

Duran Duran?!?

I fear that this series of threads may has just officially jumped the shark.

UGH! No fair. There are WAY too many songs to choose from. Honorable mentions to "The Reflex" "Hungry Like the Wolf" and "View to a Kill", but I have to go with COME UNDONE! My friends and I wondered forever how the girl under water in the video was able to sing so beautifully...

I was going to say "Rio," but then Johndisk reminded me that "View to a Kill" exists.

I like Rio a lot but I'm bothered that it is a masculine noun being used for a woman, and Rio Grande is totally not pronounced right.

Wasn't that the band with Steve and Ross in it?

Oh wait... :)
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D
